[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riotburn:
Yes why is this so much more difficult compared to winmo?

Yes read above, I can't get into adb shell to do that. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Albaholic:
Was adb working for you before? You may need to install some drivers
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riotburn:
yes it was. I need this fixed fast she just got it yesterday!, i rather like my testicles, kind of attached to them. I humbly accept all flaming and newbie calling.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tatnai:
so the first part of the commands using fastboot you don't do from adb shell. when you get the phone into fastboot, attach to your computer, you then open command prompt on computer and navigate directories until you are in the android sdk tools folder on your computer wherever it is (most people it is somewhere like c:/android-sdk-windows/tools/)

THEN you type

no adb shell.

most people have installed adb in such a way that they can access it's tools from any directory. however, at least on my computer, fastboot commands will only work from within the android tools folder where fastboot is located.

hope this helps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gatorran:
Did you download the drivers??? they are not the same as the ones installed when you connect the phone....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sporkman:

Lol at ruining your girlfriends phone. What tutorial were you following?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docsparks:
i love how this is like, atleast the 4th thread someone has ruined there GFs evo due to inexperience, or the inability to read.

seriously, im not even trying to flame. i love reading this stuff.

its like general information for what NOT to do, for us that do read.

if you find the answer that works for you, mind mentioning said message?

i like to see threads that answer the questions at least, rather than have 10 suggestions, and no final response

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riotburn:
how do i transfer the files for the second part of the usb is broken?

I was following the one that has pic by pic, and got to the point where pc36 wouldn't work. Saw that with the newest version this method wouldn't work. Went to the tutorial for that workaround and started following that. I think it got mixed up in there and thought i had nand unlocked it. Went to install the new radio, checked the system info and it wasnt the new one and started to get the problems.

Think it is rooted though because i get the # in adb shell.

How does one check to see if they did unlock nand, besides of the problem causing method i did?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riotburn:
I believe i ****ed up the custom recovery part. When I would load custom recovery it would flicker back and forth to the stock recovery, dont know if thats normal.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riotburn:
update: with more searching i found this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7136621&postcount=128 to use a update to fix the usb.

I did this and at least now it is charging, still not connecting to computer though it will charge through comp.

Can i flash back to the stock rom now? Will that fix it? How do i flash the stock rom?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
Laughed at the thread title. Is the phone messed up, or the girlfriend? Gotta love misplaced modifiers. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dglowe343:
If in fact you are rooted, you can use this method. It will put you back to "stock" with root and all the latest updates. If your computer wont mount your phone, you may have to get a micro sd card reader and plug it directly to your usb on your computer to download the files you need. Just make sure the phone is off or you unmount the sd in settings before you remove it. Or you can download them from your phone's browser, but you'll need a file manager to move the files to the root of your sd. If that wont work, your sd card might be corrupted.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
This patch is to provide fully deodexed app and framework for users of the new 1.36.605.0 OTA (stock 2.1 Sense).

Nothing has been stripped out or changed, this is completely stock. To be clear, it is NOT a full ROM and will replace your /system/app and /system/framework folders completely. If you have added anything to these directories it will be removed.

As always, you should perform a nandroid backup before applying the patch.

Worked fine for me. Initial boot took several minutes, so it appears your droid eye is frozen and it also got stuck at the HTC Incredible white screen for a few seconds longer too.

Can't optipng keyboard folks...it will break it every time.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TNS201:
I ran HTC_IME.APK through xUltimate and deodexed it there and it works fine now.

I'll attach it here for everyone, seems to work just fine on my phone now.

just reboot into recovery. I suggest the free app on market called Quick Boot. It has option to boot right to recovery or bootloader.

Put HTC_IME.apk in your tools folder where ADB is located

adb shell

rm /system/app/HTC_IME.apk

exit

adb push HTC_IME.apk /system/app/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] adrynalyne:
Deodexing is fine, the problem is when folks try to use optipng on it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TNS201:
Whats optipng?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] adrynalyne:
It compresses the png images inside the apks. A lot of the deodex tools out there optimize (zipalign) and optipng as well.

This allows you to get the performance increase from zipalign, but lowers the size as well.

Zipalign actually increases the size of an apk.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
This is a request but id love to see it done.

Basically this is a list of stuff id like to see ported to the evo :)

The girlfriend got hers and i think a good mixture would be great :)

also these would be great to be evo installable?

So here goes :)

First off blur home and phone just for the show :)

Messaging the black theme in this is just way nice! would look so much better on the evo

im including the messaging apk and widget for this one

blur contacts widget and blur contacts( i only want this one if its a widget)

editing more to come

thanks for any help or input :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] rjmjr69:
So these are just apks you want ported or are ALREADY ported?

Do you have screen shots of the messaging app?

Forget it here is a good video MAN THAT IS SWEET if that can be ported I WANT IT !!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6Lk-7ZnBfY
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
these are apks i would like ported ill make sure to make that clear and i wont be with my girlfriend til sunday to take pictures of her messaging app
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Casshern:
I'll add to the list of those waiting. Also will donate for such things.

It would help me get away from the sprint image even more since my io model is on big red.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] rjmjr69:
Ill donate as well to get the messaging apk that is some wonderful work there and if you could skin it wow :D:D:D:D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Yay 4 Juggs:
looking closer into it the messaging app is blur depended along with blur contact integration...the picker is easy and can be written in a few minutes...however the framework requires blur.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Greenfieldan:
none of those .apk's are working :/
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sporkman:
Ahahahahahahah 111hqhqhqhq

they need to be ported!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
so thats a no to them being ported? i thought that they could sense blur is now an apk and runs in the background and isnt intergrated into the os?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Casshern:
Patience :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
lol believe me i have patience haha im just curious cus its not something that im capable of so im just asking for some info :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Yay 4 Juggs:
the only problem with is having another 40mb ui on your device running in the background...but regardless of that...porting this cannot be done without blur and few other dependencies.

So after re reading this what if we were to have thw messaging apk kook for htc contact intergration ?

This belong in Q&A forum for starters..

So before it gets removed:

Yes it will. Remove all widgets or better yet, delete the launcher completely.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3Shirts:
Is this true if you have a launcher set to default and never open the other? I have CM6 (so ADW built in) but use Launcher Pro and have it set to default so when I boot, Launcher Pro loads. Presumably ADW never does unless I specifically invoke it so it's not gonna be using memory until I do, correct?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrRossicoe:
You can delete ADW from CM6 with Titanium Backup. I use Launcher Pro on CM6 and that's what I did.

[Streak 5 General] Techneut:
A not working car charger for the Dell Streak can be down to badly made car chargers!

Testing mine, I noticed that my not working charger was being reported by the phone as USB.

So I tried to rectify this, looking at how the phone recognises what it's being charged with.

For the phone to recognize it as a charger, continuity has to exist between the 2 middle (data) pins.

Therefore, I opened my charger, and simply soldered the 2 middle pins together...

Tada! My Dell Streak now reports that it is plugged into an AC source, and it charges!

For 5 minutes 'work', it certainly was worth doing.

Hope this helps you too.

I use the double iphone usb plug (white) from tescos. £10 or a fiver I forget which. Obviiusly the cable is a pain in the butt. Noticed if you search for the cable youcan buy it for 21 or 24 pounds from the dell site. Not sure why the price difference but it saves 3 quid
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stringman:
Hi all,

please excuse the vagueness of this post.

I have just been given a tp2 as a replacement to my td2

My wife also has the tp2 which she got a year ago

the whole look of the phone (software ) is totally diferent

for instance the program page used to list a few progs (your choice) and then you had to hit all progs to get them up.

i am guessing that its a different rom or different version of sense?

also how do i change/edit/remove some programs from the list?

cheers guys
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] undefined:
you'll need a registry editor to get the job done here, you can find that in the Theme's and apps section, i'll be back with a link, but you have to navigate to --

HKLM\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu

and where you see

EnableManilaStartMenu = 1

change the one to a zero and restart the phone, should work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stringman:
thanks for that

sorry to be thick but does that just enable me to move the prog icons or delete the progs as well

appreciate the help
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
You don't need to edit the registry to turn off Manila. This is easily done from the Today settings.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stringman:
hi got a regedit prog

but i gat as far as

HKLM\Software\HTC\

but cant see enlarge menu

also on the today screen there is no mention of manilla jut htc sense

all i really want to do is lose all the stupid pre loaded progs

thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
Different issues, my friend. Sense is the UI (aka Manila versions 2.1 and 2.5) you see when you start the phone. It is on by default, but you can turn it off in the Today setup and use the much less memory intensive standard Window Mobile screen. Go into the Today setup and turn off Sense by removing the check mark in the list and putting a check mark on Windows Default.

As for the bloatware that comes with the phone, anything on the ROM can not be removed except by flashing a new ROM. You can delete shortcuts from your start menu for programs you don't/won't use, but the programs will still be there. Do a search for Crud Scraper, a neat little tool that can 'remove' stuff from specific phone models (it worked great on my Tilt 2). Beyond that, read up as much as you can on modding your phone. This place is a great resource. Unfortunately, easy answers are hard to come by. You have to roll up your sleeves and get a little dirty.:cool:
[Vibrant General] fisal:
I tried to use Odin3 + i9000xwjg5.tar but I couldn't .

did anyone try ?

the problem in the driver it's incompatibility with Vibrant

:D
[Vibrant General] MS_Guru:
Good to see others taking the road less traveled. Good luck to you my friend. Here's what I've been using thus far, with Multiple ROM's, in all different states of neglect. And FYI, I did NOT use the installer. Just giving everyone all my goodies as I found them. I can't recall where I picked these up, but they seem to do the trick on my windows 7 x64 machine. But I know there's also x86 sprinkled throughout. Have fun in your endeavor.

Oh, the downloader in that ROM can be reached, I believe, via volume up + power, and holding that through two power cycles. If not, try tapping the up volume while holding the power button immediately after it starts to boot. And getting to recovery is near impossible without a home button. So give it thought. Have a way out already loaded to your sdcard, ie. an upload.zip of some sort. Now off you go my friend. :D

Again, didn't use the installer. Just leaving everything I've been using intact...

Megaupload
[Vibrant General] rhcp011235:
Hello,

What are these files?

Do you have a changelog? or desc? or readme? or perhaps you can tell us.

Thanks
[Vibrant General] MS_Guru:
If your worried about viruses, scan it. I trust no one and this is always a prudent course of action. I run everything by Malwarebytes, and Symantec, at the very least. Other than that I have little background for you. You wanted drivers that work on Vibrant with alien firmwares, that's what you got. There seems to be drivers from loads of different builds, I believe the majority to be 9000 based. Googles your friend, I'm sure you can find something on it. That is after all how I found it. And like I said, your getting these files exactly the way I found them, so the names valid to the original content I found.

I do hope you realize what your getting yourself into flashing alien firmware, be sure to heed my warnings of the home button. And I would really recommend browsing a few 9000 threads before diving in head first. Good luck my friend.

[Nexus One General] kmohr:
I have a stock Nexus One for AT&T running Froyo 91. My Outlook Exchange calendar and contacts (which is my primary source for each) sync perfectly to the phone, but will not sync to my Google account. I have tried deleting and recreating my Google account calendar and contacts; alas, to no avail. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
[Nexus One General] Mi|enko:
It won't sync to your google account just by setting it up on the phone. It still pulls from the multiple sources to give you a single view of all your events on the phone itself. If you want to sync your calendar/contacts to your google account itself, you'll need to use Google Sync. http://www.google.com/mobile/sync/
[Nexus One General] kmohr:
Thanks for your reply. I've been to that URL, and it seems odd to me that Google Sync is not available for Android? What am I missing?
[Nexus One General] gibosn6594:
Your post is confusing. Are you saying that your Google calendar is not syncing with your phone? Or are you saying that your Google calendar is not syncing with your outlook calendar?
[Nexus One General] kmohr:
Apologies for the confusion; I'll try again. My Exchange email (and *.edu extension), contacts, and calendar all sync to my Nexus One just fine. Likewise, the email from my Google account syncs to the native Google email app on the phone. However, my Google calendar and contacts both remain empty; in other words the Nexus One calendar and contacts are not syncing to my Google account. I hope this clarifies my issue. Thanks again.
[Nexus One General] snlu178:
@kmhor

Two things. Have you checked the sync settings for google to make sure calendar and contacts are syncing?

Secondly, and more basic, do you have anything in that google calendar and contacts?

Also if it is google apps set up through your edu (I have that) which you are trying to sync have they activated the Cal / contacts?

Most likely it is the first setting.
[Nexus One General] kmohr:
Yes I have checked the settings and they are set to sync. Second, no, my Google account calendar and contacts are blank. This is the point: I want to populate them by syncing from Exchange via my phone. I hope this clarifies my question. Thanks for your reply.
[Nexus One General] snlu178:
So you want to go from exchange to your phone and then to Google.

No your phone does not do that.
[Nexus One General] mr_raider:
Your phone keeps the Google stuff separate from the MS exchange stuff. It combines them in to a single view on your handset.

You can migrate the calendar using MS outlook on your PC. Open outlook and sync to your MS exchange account. Then download google calendar sync:

http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=89955

And this will sync your calendar from MS outlook to Google calendar.

I don't know how to migrate Contacts or Notes.
[Nexus One General] kmohr:
Thanks to all who replied to my inquiry. This seems like a significant impediment to wide-spread adoption of Android for business users. Like it or not, MS Exchange is a huge established base for business. The idea that one cannot maintain a single list of contacts, tasks, and notes, in addition to a synchronized calendar calendars between one's work and non-work systems is vexing. For all it's other challenges, Windows Mobile does this pretty well.

OK, off my soap box and on to Google's N1 forum with the suggestion. Thanks again.
[Nexus One General] mr_raider:
You misunderstand. Your phone will sync google calendar, mail and contacts to google, and exchange mail/calendar/contacts, to exchange server. It will show gmail under gmail, and exchange mail under email. It will combine Google contacts with Exchange contacts in a single list on your phone. It will however keep them segregated. You can NOT cross sync a gmail contact with exchange server. This is right and as it should be.

In your calendar or contacts you can select to show gmail contacts, exchange contacts or both.

I have owned WinMo phones from 5.0 onwards, and I can tell you winmo can not do any of this. It can only sync contacts/calendar to one account, either MS exchange, or gmail. And that's only because gmail is compatible with exchange prtocol.
[Nexus One General] kmohr:
Mr_Rader: Thanks again for your help. I think you just answered my question. My hope is to be able to seamlessly maintain a single list of contacts between Exchange and Google. In other words, if Mr. Smith's phone number changes and I update it in Exchange while at work, I would like that change to be reflected in Mr. Smith's Google contact when I want to call him from home and am looking him up his contact information on Google contacts. If I understand you correctly, this cannot be done and I would need to update his contact twice to ensure consistency.

My reference to WinMo related to the ability of my old HTC Kasier to essentially serve as a conduit between Exchange Contacts on my work account and Outlook contacts on my home machine. When I synced via USB at home, it compared the contacts on Exchange to those on the home machine, and updated both to reflect the information in the most recently updated version. This is what I am trying to acheive here.

Thanks again.
[Nexus One General] CodeMonkey:
I use a licensed syncing tool (gSyncit) to sync my work calendar (in Exchange 2007) from Outlook 2010 to my google account 'Work' calendar. It then propagates to iCal on my Mac and my Nexus One.

This effectively is using my Google account as the conduit rather than the phone - would this be an acceptable alternative? gSyncit handles contacts, calendars, etc.

http://www.daveswebsite.com/software/gsync/
[Nexus One General] kmohr:
That would work, except I need to get past our local IT support folks who frown upon installing such third-party apps on work machines. I will check it out though. Thanks for the suggestion!
[Nexus One General] CodeMonkey:
No worries.

I tend to forget about the IT support policies - being a developer gets me a lot of slack :-)
[Nexus One General] kmohr:
Yeah, and I hear you guys get all the beautiful women too! Maybe in my next life... ;-)
